摘要:An address is allocated to a host device which is selected to obtain network
access from any access point within a given communications system, while maintaining anetwork bandwidth management scheme that is consistently applied to a user's networkbandwidth usage regardless of the access point used by the user. This is accomplishedusing a communications network having a at least one access point coupled to a firstrouter which is configured to forward packets at a forwarding rate based on a sourceaddress contained in each of the packets. A user profile is assigned to each subscriberbelonging to an access point. Each user profile includes a pool identifier which
corresponds to a forwarding rate used by the router for packets corresponding to thesubscriber. If a subscriber attempts to log-on to an access point, a source address isselected using the address pool identifier, the source address is assigned to thesubscriber, and each packet is forwarded at a forwarding rate based on the sourceaddress contained within each of the packets. The communications system may alsoinclude a global memory which contains all of the user profiles stored for the
communications system. The global memory provides the pertinent user profile to anyaccess point from which a subscriber seeks to obtain access when the subscriber does nothave a user profile contained within the local memory of the access point, such as in thecase of a roaming subscriber.
